"It follows from what we have just said, that the natural changes of monads come from an internal principle, since an external cause would be unable to influence their inner being."
Being

Nature
"For since it is impossible for a created monad to have a physical influence on the inner nature of another, this is the only way in which one can be dependent on another."
Nature
"I do not conceive of any reality at all as without genuine unity."
